Lyrics
The days of wine and roses
Laugh and run away like a child at play
Through the meadowland toward a closing door
A door marked “Nevermore” that wasn’t there before
The lonely night discloses just a passing breeze
Filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you
